Mr.. Dabney, of Albemarle, offered a
Joint resolution prohibiting the grant
ing of licenses for the transaction OF
any business or the pursuit of any oc-
cupation or profession, or the enjoy
ment of any privilege for which license
is required by law, for longer period
than from the date of the issue OF
such license to the first day of June,
1887, and prescribing the amount TO be
paid for such licenses.
The object of the resolution, Mr.
Dabney said, is to prevent the influx
of coupons or their tender for licenses
for the year commencing May ], 1887.
The effort now being made to force
coupons into the Treasury is producing
a feeling of evaporation throughout
the State by no means conducive to an
smicable settlement of the debt It Is
hoped that this resolution will allay
that feeling and protect the Treasury
pending negotiations for settlement
between the State and her bondholders.
Persons who have already had licenses
issued 10 them will not be affected by
the provisions OF the resolution. But
where coupons have been rendered and
no license issued to the tenderer his
tender will avail nothing, and he must
apply for a monthly license under the
resolution.
The amount to be paid for licenses
under the resolution is one twelfth OF

SoME days ago a local assembly of the
knights of Labor ordered boycott to be
enforced against the Criterion Theatre, OF
Brooklyn, because number of "scabs''
were being employed as members of the or.
chestra. The management of The theatre.
instead of discharging the "scabs," caused
it to become known that a boycott had been
declared against it and published the rea.
son why. The consequence has been that
the patronage Of the theatre has increased
to quite an extent as in the cases of those
other boycoucd firms of divers kinds and
times, and the managers of the theatre are
said to hope that The boycott may continue.
There is a limit to which the masses of the
people will not go in following any leader
or leaders, and conspiracy to ruin the
legitimate businesses of honest enterprise
Is on the far sile Of the line of limit.

Charles Mccarthy, OF New York. in his
lecture on ''Ancicnt and Modern Strikes, ~
remarks: A strike is fight in Tie dark.
The old Egyptian strike led by Moses. when
compared with modern strikes, will present
b1th parallel and a contrast. The chill
dren Of Israel, slaves under the leadership
of Moses, organized the greatest industrial
strike of which we have any account in
ancient history. Notwithstanding the fact,
supposing the account TO be true, that this
great ancient strike was supported by ex-
traoriinary and suretlnlman powers, It
cannot be considered in any practical sense
a success. 1t dill not improve the charac-
ter or better the condition of the slaves
who successfully escaped from the brick
fields of Egypt. These unfortunate strikers
were led by their Inspired leaders into a
forty years pilgrimage through wilder
ness where they suffered harlalIips not less
intense than the tiial OF brick-uaking.
In comparing this Old strike with the
present strikes of American industrial
slaves against taskmasters Just az grinding
as the Egyptians were, we are thankful for
the hopeful contrast, conspicuous in the
absence of malice. There is none of the
miraculous and supcrhuman destructive
ness which characterized the history of the
oil Hebrew strike for liberty in the land of
Goshen. Then. as now, 10 was a fight i'm
the dark. Then, as now, il was war-not
natural fght between the laborer and the
capitalist, but ore between the laborer and
the land owner, who was the master. Now
the strike is between organized capital and
organized labor. This is merely fight in
the dark, but 1t is war, and war carrying in
its train mutual destruction, like that Irish
traditional dual:
There was once two eats in Kilkenny,
Each thought there was one too many,
so they quarrCled and ft
And they gougcd ana tiley bit,
Till, excepting their nails

Strikes should seldom be entered upon
except as last resort, AMI never with the
expectation of gaining permanent redress
a scab could not be blamed tor taking a
position which had been thrown up by a
'triker. They are only laborers pressed by
hunger to 90 so. They are our fellow crea-
lures and we should feel for them. Vio-
lence will gain us nothing. Political action
Is our only hope.
